Maybe 3 hours at night.

You can add a Dark Mode toggle to NickelMenu and make it available on the ... menu on the reader page. See attached image.

What is nickelmenu and how do I fix it?

Sorry but I don't see that here. See the attached images for ChareInk6 set to minimum and maximum weigth. What font are you using?

5. Refresh: I set it to refresh at every new chapter. Could not make it refresh any less. When in dark screen mode and when I turned the page to begin the next chapter, the screen flashed to regular mode then reverted to dark mode. It flashed way too bright after looking at a dark gray screen. I had to remember to close my eyes before turning the last page in a chapter. It does the reverse when in regular mode - flashes to dark mode then back to regular mode. Dark mode is a medium gray, not really dark or black. I prefer dark gray or black.
Odd. I can set the refresh down to every page. And what you are seeing is a triple flash to rewrite the screen to clear up ghosting. The screen is written white-black-white to reset the cells. It is a lot more noticeable in dark mode but that's life.

I can set it to every page but that just means that I will get more bright flashes, not less. It is really bright. I did not have that problem with a tablet.


That is a Adobe page number. This should not appear on a Kobo Plus or Kobo Epub book since the Webkit-based renderer is not able to display Adobe synthetic page number algorithm generated page numbers. The only time you should see this is if the book type shows in Books as EPUB. You can turn off those numbers on the Reading settings page.


Done.

One of the reasons that I edit ebooks. If an epub ebook's CSS says to use justified, that is what you will see.

Editing sounds like too much work for me. It really is a pain to read. There must be more spaces than I thought after the apostrophe. I keep having to re-read.... 't looks like "I" sometimes which makes no sense so I reread it. Just a pain when the author constantly uses contractions. I have never seen this happen before I started using Calibre. Not on my old Nooks, Fire tablet, or Android tablet.

I don't know what CSS is...

Ghosting is an artifact of eInk. You can tap the center of the screen twice to refresh the screen and get rid of ghosting. Several posters set their screens to refresh every page since they tend to be sensitive to ghosting. The only time I really notice it is on images.[/QUOTE]

I don't ever remember seeing ghosting on my old Nooks. So I can double tap to refresh. So in dark mode, I will have bright flashes more often. I only noticed the ghosting on 1 page and only 1 time.
